Biography

Joseph was one of the members of Alpha team when they discovered the wreckage of Bravo team's helicopter on July 24, 1998. He himself was the member who discovered the partially eaten corpse of Bravo team's pilot, Kevin Dooley.[3] While searching through the forest, he was distracted by a pack of Cerberuses roaming the Arklay Mountains. Investigating a noise behind him, he was distracted from the rest of the pack massing in front of him.

Death

Joseph's screams slowly diminished as the dogs ganged up on him and tore him apart while still alive. Fellow Alpha team member, Jill Valentine, tried to help. After his death, they quickly turn around to Jill and the other Alpha team members,[3] chasing them towards the nearby mansion.

Further notes

The death of Joseph is portrayed very differently in the original 1996 version of Resident Evil. In the original game, Joseph searches the surrounding area for any clues as to the whereabouts of Bravo team, and discovers a pistol held by a severed human hand lying in the grass. In the uncut intro, he manages to kill a few of the Cerberuses, before being bitten in the throat and eaten by the rest of the pack.

He is the first and quite truthfully the only S.T.A.R.S. Alpha team member to be killed during the Mansion incident. The second being S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team Captain Albert Wesker, though it would later be revealed that he faked his death with the use of a regenerative virus.
